About that Pileated Feather
One of my goals for the year was to photograph a Pileeated Woodpecker at High Mountian this year.
I guess this is the next best thing — a Pileated feather found by Ginny Chucka in the Franklin Clove during Fyke's High Mountain walk this morning. (Thanks, Ginny!)
More about Pileatd feathers here.
A recent Pileated video at Troy Meadows by Dave Blinder, below, is a pretty cool look at this beautiful bird.
